The second iteration of 2v8 is now LIVE - find out more information here: https://forums.bhvr.com/dead-by-daylight/kb/articles/480-2v8-developer-update

Haven't played for 4 months

I didn't play for 4 months when I decided to play it again, and it's going right back on the shelf. Nerfed almost every killer in some shape (add-ons, perks, speed... Etc). This game has become SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO survivor sided it's BS. The freaking game is called DEAD BY DAYLIGHT, and the creators are making it ALIVE at Daylight. I'm happy to sell my copy / account. This is now a horrible game to play.

    The game takes practise to be good at, you cant expect to win easily after 4months.

    Nope, no tuft of hair. All the additional pallets. I mean good lawd all the 2,3,4 chances the survivors get now, goodness. I say again the game is called DEAD by daylight, not alive. The Devs turned their backs on the actual concept of the game, and after reading the patch notes, no thank you. Everything nerfed SO bad on the killer side it's pathetic. Like I said though, be more than willing to sell my account if you want it. Because the more I think about it being so survivor sided now, I think I just want to sell the game at a second hand store and move on. The greedy CEO don't want to lose players so they make it survivor sided since theirs more survivors than killers. GAME FOR SALE!

    They definitly did not nerf every killer in the past 4 months. The only thing substantially that's changed for killers is the new anti-camp mechanics that doesn't even change much unless you're face camping.

    Other than that Behavior has overall buffed killers. If you look through the patch notes, basically all the recent changes except to the brand new killers have been buffs.

    Likely you just got rusty after not playing awhile. Only other possible explanation is that you actually haven't played in 6 months and are going against people using MFT which was added when Singularity was added in June and is now meta for survivors.

    After complaining about Prove Thyself, the devs reduced its strength.

    After complaining about Brand New Part, the devs reduced its strength.

    After complaining about Dead Hard, devs reduced its strength.

    After complaining about Made For This, devs are about to reduce its strength.

    They released Xeno which destroyed survivors so bad it was the focus of every topic for like 2 solid months.

    They're just about to release a new killer that some pros are saying is one of the strongest to ever be put in the game.

    What? Xeno does not destroy survivors. Xeno is mid tier.

    Correction, brand new part was buffed, not nerfed. Now there is a guaranteed minimum of 10 seconds up to an entire 40 seconds that can be permanently removed from a generators regression potential. That's hand over fist stronger than it's original form. Originally, a killer could chase someone off a gen and get it regressing and eliminate what good it did. Now once a survivor uses bnp, it's a permanent penalty on the killer that cannot be removed or reduced. Having an on demand -40 seconds on a generator is absolutely huge. If that generator ever regresses to 0, then the moment any survivor touches it treats it as if they had just sat there for 40 seconds working on it.

    "Having an on demand -40 seconds on a generator is absolutely huge."

    How does Brand New Part save 40 seconds on a generator? Do you mean if every survivor brings it and uses it on one generator? Has that ever happened?

    Yes, happens every so often, and it's entirely up to the survivors if they want to be able to do that. The amount of 4 toolboxes, BNP, and +charges I've seen is pretty ridiculous lol. The killer has absolutely no way to prevent squads from doing that unless those survivors delay its use and the killer has Franklin's, but usually they just run to one of the 3 gen spots and unload it all right off the bat.

    Even if only one survivor brings bnp, permanent 10 seconds off is still stronger than the original form. Originally, killers could recover that generator.

    I haven't ever seen four survivors take four brand new parts and use all four on one generator to save 40 seconds. If you see it "every so often" you are very unlucky.

    Brand new part didn't really get worse. It got from 30s to 26s on gen, but new effect basically reduce effectivness of any killer slowdown. So in some situations, it's better. I wouldn't call that a nerf.

    4 seconds as trade off for 10% nerf on any killer slowdown for that gen sounds good to me.


    They released Xeno which destroyed survivors so bad it was the focus of every topic for like 2 solid months.

    So wanna talk about current state of Xeno too? Not really popular killer anymore after his nerfs...


    After complaining about Made For This,Β 

    So two months of Xeno were terrible, but this is fine... You know, 5 months of faster survivors.

    I'm not hear to argue. Now read the patch notes for the survivor. I understand you like the game, but really?! I played for 3 weeks after 4 months, the survivor body blocking even when you're play right! They still do it, and yet behavior has not done a single thing to make it where they can't. Where's the killers add-on to remove 1/2 the pallets? Where's the killers Blight serum? Funny how they're STILL letting survivors use it when killers can't. The technology is out there too make it a balanced game, but all they want is your $$$ WAKE UP! why do you think all their content is available for purchase versus only being able to get them when you level up. All the aforementioned is all reasons why Im not paying anymore, and why is the PTB only available on computers? Another. ... The list goes on and on. But a person would be crazy not to realize the game is mediocre at best.

    If 4 people used BNP on a gen pre nerf it would just get done instantly. Also, if one person used an BNP and then got forced off the gen it would take 40 seconds of uninterrupted regression for old BNP's value to be seen, and since survivors know the gen got BNP'ed, they'd be more likely to let it sit instead of contesting it - meaning you can get more regression value while pressuring other parts of the map
